Why you might like it
- If you kneel or lie down a lot during workouts, Gaiam says the thick foam is meant to ease pressure on knees and hips on hard floors.
- If you like a plush surface, the brand describes this mat as putting comfort and shock absorption ahead of firmness.
- If you move your mat between rooms or classes, the included adjustable strap is meant for carrying it once rolled up.
- If you want simple upkeep, the listing says a damp cloth is all you need to wipe it clean.
Good to know
- The listing mentions an initial foam smell that it says usually goes away once the mat has aired out for a day or two.
- Because the brand favors softness over firmness here, consider whether that suits your style of practice before ordering.
